It is not a surprise to hear that much of the rest of the world is rooting against the United States in the World Cup. Well, of course, they won't have to do much rooting against it in the first place because the U.S. isn't winning the World Cup.

Joining the United States as the countries most people are rooting against are Iran and Russia, at least according to a New York Times survey.

The results were taken from a study of people from 19 countries conducted by YouGov, an online survey firm. It should come as no surprise that South Korea and Japan are rooting against each other. Mexicans rooting against the United States is a given; same with France rooting against Algeria.

The two countries actively rooting against themselves are Russia and the United States, which also should not come as a big surprise.

According to the opinions of those surveryed in Chile, Brazil and Colombia, Argentina is the team they are rooting against the most. After all, Argentina is thought to be a threat to all three of those countries on the pitch. Argentina is also home to Lionel Messi, widely considered the best soccer player on the planet.

The rest of the survey provides interesting, though not surprising, insight. A survey of 100 Americans found that 60 of them are not interested in the World Cup, the most of any of the countries involved in the survey.
